'Chinese characters appear in vscode context menu. How do I get rid of them?
I use VS Code (version 1.49.1) on my Ubuntu 18.04.
I just noticed this that all of a sudden I see Chinese characters appear when I right click on folders or files in the project files space on the left.
Not sure what's causing this or what that text even means. How do I get rid of it?

As @HolyBlackCat commented above, it was one of the extensions. I didn't have the patience to figure out which extension it was, but I went ahead and removed some unused extensions and it worked. That one odd Chinese menu entry is now gone.
The culprit is one of these three extensions:-
- Binary by asurance
- React Native Tools by Microsoft
- React-Native/React/Redux snippets for es6/es7 by EQuimper
Hope this helps someone else in the future.

"React Native Tools by Microsoft" is the culprit plugin! I just disabled it and all good :)
